Rocky Mountain Region Disaster Mental Health: WILDLAND FIRE INFORMATION

ACCESSING THE TEAM

Snowy Range A.S.I.S.T. is available to any emergency service requesting the team services. Any agency requiring assistance may contact Snowy Range A.S.I.S.T. by calling 1-800-821-3711, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Be prepared to give information to the following questions:
* Your name and telephone number

* Your agency's name, address and chief officer

* The nature and location of the incident

* Date and time of the incident

* The urgency of the situation

* The number of persons expected to attend the debriefing

Foe optimal effectiveness, a formal debriefing should be conducted 24 to 72 hours following an incident. It should generally not be postponed for longer than one week. Because of Wyoming's rural population, special circumstances are often encountered, and debriefings must be contoured to each individual situation.

All information during the debriefing is strictly confidential and will not be discussed with those not at the session. Only general information will be released.
